- O2k-Publication: Heart failure and mitochondrial dysfunction. Increased OXPHOS capacity after cold preservation of the human heart – a paradox resolved by a dyscoupling mechanism.
- Scientific service: Tissue storage on ice is possible for limited periods of time (several hours) with preservation of mitochondrial respiratory function, as evaluated with SUIT protocols.
- Term of the week: Uncoupled, non-coupled, dyscoupled - a hallmark of high-resolution respirometry is a matching high-resolution terminology.
- Evaluate an example of low-resolution terminology: Uncoupling was studied in stressed cells by measurement of coupled respiration, evaluation of uncoupled respiration after inhibition with oligomycin, and FCCP titration to quantify uncoupled respiration.

- O2k-Fluorimetry Workshop IOC66: 2012-03-15 to 16. OROBOROS INSTRUMENTS, Innsbruck, Austria. The first series of the O2k-Fluorescence Module will be delivered in April 2012, for orders received by end of January 2012.
- O2k-Publication: A key question on the separation of qualitative versus quantitative change of mitochondrial function is addressed in a new O2k-Publication. Does training induce mild uncoupling? Are sedentary humans healthy controls?
- Scientific service: ETS capacity plays a key role in such analyses, which cannot be achieved quantitatively without careful uncoupler titrations.
- Term of the month: Basal respiration - a hallmark of high-resolution respirometry is a matching high-resolution terminology.
